I'm only 15 but, I lost about 50 pounds back in 8th grade because I was sick of being a tubby dork. Here are my tips.
1. Try to eat at the same time everyday.
2. I played Video games for hours. (Keep food away though) Sounds dumb right? Well, it stopped me from snacking all the time. Just do something to keep you away from food even if it isn't exercise.
3. Think of some motivation. I didn't want to be an obese loser with no life. Especially since I'm just a kid. (That was mine)
4. Try to slowly change your eating habits. You will never lose weight and keep it off unless you change the way you eat.
5. Find healthier things to eat and convince yourself that it's better than candy and junk foods. I ate cereal a lot.
6. The biggest thing I did was change the way I drank. I drank nothing but Diet coke and other diet sodas, Crystal Light, and water the entire time. Think about how many calories you take in from drinks. I used to consume over 1000 calories a day from drinks and now I consume anywhere from 0-100. (Excluding things like cereal.)
7. Try to get a regular sleeping time everyday.
8. Also, don't think that something like pizza is going to make you fat. Just eat like 2 slices and make sure you don't eat any other high fat/calorie things that day. Usually when you eat pizza, that's all you eat. Try to substitute all those extra slices with something healthier.
EDIT: 9. DON'T BUY KRISPY CREME DONUTS. Those damn things are hard to resist. My mom kept buying those things. I'd go downstairs and she would tell me she bought some so, I ran back upstairs. Too addictive.
Also, on any diet, your nutrition may be lacking somewhere. I didn't get much Vitamin C so, I took vitamin pills. That's basically what I did.
